Touch-up paints

#1 PostAuthor: NickH » Mon Oct 18, 2021 12:12 pm

Does anyone remember those holts touch-up paints? Kinda tubes with a built-in brush. I've managed to take a chip out of the top of my tank, and wondered if there's a match / known code for the Z900A4 bottle green. I figured it was quite a common colour, so just wondered if anyone knew of something I could use to fill in this in with.

Thank you :-)

A good auto factors should be able to mix a touch up kit, IF you have the correct code or RAL.

Take a panel and get a supplier to scan it a mix a paint. Paint doesn't stay the same colour, it fades over time, so even if you knew the colour code fresh paint wouldn't match.
